Which among the following will have highest density?
Options
- ACCl 4
- Bn - C 3 H 7 I
- Cn - C 3 H 7 Br
- Dn - C 3 H 7 Cl
Correct answer
B. n - C 3 H 7 I
Step-by-step solution
Bromo, iodo and polychloro derivatives of hydrocarbons are heavier than water. The density increases with increase in number of carbon atoms, halogen atoms and atomic mass of the halogen atoms. Compound Density in g/mL CCl 4 1 . 595 n - C 3 H 7 I 1 . 747 n - C 3 H 7 Br 1 . 335 n - C 3 H 7 Cl 0 . 89
